"What a gem! Myself and my partner stayed here during the first week of October 2018. We were going through the stressful process of buying a house at the time and this was a much welcomed break.The location is fantastic; easy to find and just up the road from Melbourne village in Derby. The cottage is about half a mile along a gravel path from the main property and is perfectly secluded to give you the feeling of being completely alone. Highly recommended for anyone looking for some peace and tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.Stunning fields surround the cottage and a line of trees accent the side of the cottage where the hot tub sits. The hot tub was a definite highlight and we used this everyday of the holiday; sometimes it was during the day where we could watch rabbits and pheasants across the fields, other times it was in the evening so we could enjoy the stars. The cottage itself is gorgeous and has been furnished by someone with a keen eye for style. It is definitely not style over substance though as things like the heated bathroom floor and adjustable lighting were well thought out and all furniture is of a high quality.The bed in the master room was very comfy and I loved the quirky inclusion of a toilet and shower in the master bedroom too.The location of the accommodation means you have easy access to plenty of things to do. The highlights for us were when we visited Calke Abbey and a fascinating little hollowed-out cave called Anchor Church.All in all we had a fantastic time and we can't wait to come back! It truly is a little slice of heaven and we have recommended this to many of our friends looking for a break from their busy lives.Thank you!"

"We had a lovely stay at the Broomhills. Unfortunately the weather was awful but it didn’t stop us enjoying ourselves. The hot tub was lovely and the cottage and grounds are fab. We only had one criticism and that would be the two German shepherd dogs that get walked on the grounds every morning. The dogs every morning came right up to the house and poo’d in the garden every day and the owner never once picked it up so we were having to. Plus these dogs were quite intimidating when you had to walk past them. We have a cockapoo and she loved the land. We were also in the hot tub and a brown Labrador came running over from another field and decided to poo right by the hot tub. His also we had to clean up. I felt the cottage could have benefited from a thorough clean as the tv cabinet was covered in dust and other areas too but it didn’t take away from how lovely the cottage was. Perhaps new towels would be nice as some of them were heavily stained. We found the cottage had all the essentials including dishwasher tablets, tea, coffee and the welcome bottle of wine was a lovely touch. We would definitely recommend the Broomhills and will be looking to re book soon. Helpfully with better weather!"

"I wanted to sleep in the top Bedroom but the toilet was not working ,we phoned the contact number that was left,the lady said she would look into it on Friday the Day we were leaving, it was very disappointing, as the note said just contact me if you need anything. I also couldn't close the curtains properly as there was a lot of noise coming from the pub across the road. we couldn't work the Television properly as we did not realize the box needed to be manually pressed on, we struggled with the remote and didn't realize the box wasn't on. After a 5 Hour journey we would have preferred a few tea Bags to a pkt of biscuits as we had to go shopping. Our Holiday was more about a rest than to see the sights and it was very noisy with the pub one side and the back of Waitrose on the other side with Deliveries and lorries being loaded during the Day."

"Location was excellent right in the middle of Bridport town centre. The cottage had everything we needed with two modern bathrooms, good sized kitchen and living space. It backs onto Waitrose which has deliveries some mornings at 4am which is going to wake up anyone sleeping in the top bedroom with the window open (we had 20C day temps and 14-18C night - the top bedroom was very warm). It was not a problem once the window was closed and apparently the noise could not be heard from the front ground floor bedroom. The off road parking was very useful and no trouble with any surrounding vehicles. You have two ways to get into the space if there is anyone parked where they shouldn't.A very enjoyable break for all."

"This cottage was a surprise for my boyfriends 20th as a present from me I also invited his friends as it’s fits 4 and he would of loved them there , this is one of the best places I’ve seen and even better in person! The hot tub is amazing both night and day, they gave us milk and a bottle of wine. There is a Sainsbury’s near by 4 min drive. There was some lovely farmer girls and boys who walk there dog across the land but this happened only once did not bother us. Worth the money and we would love to go back again for the summer this time. Thank you Broomhills for one of the best weekends of all time. I have lots of people wanting details to hopefully try it out too:)"
